Zebra Crossing

This is where I have the freedom It is where I can be contained
It is where I can test the patience of them motorists It is where I can smile at their impatient hoots
At the zebra crossing!

You need to know this game, This dirty game
Isn’t yours alone You are misleading
and I know in other places In other times…situations,
I can never make myself seen, Let me talk.

I will cross the way I want Curse, and say I’m arrogant
But how else can you know I exist? This is my time
I will cross the way I want

You have the rest of the road… What I claim is just peace
As I use my six or so feet It is what I own of the road
And it is what I’ll use To fight to get noticed
And like a lion I’ll roar here Like a snail I’ll cross
You must know I exist!
